Melton was pulled over Tuesday morning on Interstate 10 between the towns of Vinton and Sulphur, KHOU said.

Deputies from the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Department told KHOU that Melton was acting suspiciously and initially refused to allow them to search her vehicle after a police dog alerted them to the presence of drugs.

Melton was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, KHOU reported. The marijuana is reportedly valued at about $120,000.
